Top Republicans in Washington and in the national GOP establishment say the 2010 campaign highlighted an urgent task that they will begin in earnest as soon as the elections are over: Stop Sarah Palin.
Interviews with advisers to the main 2012 presidential contenders and with other veteran Republican operatives make clear they see themselves on a common, if uncoordinated, mission of halting the momentum and credibility Palin gained with conservative activists by plunging so aggressively into this years midterm campaigns.
There is rising expectation among GOP elites that Palin will probably run for president in 2012 and could win the Republican nomination, a prospect many of them regard as a disaster in waiting.

She was on Greta last night. She’s has wised up in the last three years about the MSM and Democrats and I think she is beginning to understand the problems with the RINOS. She make a great President.

Oh bull.

Sarah is getting stronger for having been the VP candidate with McCain. Every since then she has been attacked by all parties.
She has as a private citizen done more for America than any one of the Elite Democrats, or Elite Republicans. She has always been presidential, moral and honorable in spite of the pettiness and trash thrown towards her. I admire her for what she has done and am grateful and in awe of her power and capabilities.
The politicians don’t like that she is who she is and they are powerless to stop her. The more they come after Sarah the more they expose themselves for what they really are.
She will have a lot of crap tossed at her after 11/3/2010 and she will keep looking better and better each time.
Rudy is on FOX as we speak defending Palin.
Go figger.
Maybe he is smart enough to see the writing on the wall and doesn’t want to suffer the fate of the RINOs. That would be a good thing, and he would seem a bit more believable than say a Crist
Aahh yes, Carl Rove. As someone else said (and I wish I’d thought of it) our Joe Biden.
The biggest difference is, we didn't elect Rove to anything. We're not stuck with him, so if he's no longer useful, we can put him out on the curb.
Maybe it's time he learned that. The hard way, if necessary.
Just want to remind the interbred hierarchy of the Republican Party...
I cling to my guns and religion...
I will NOT vote for Romney.
I agree with him that anyone who wants to run should run. They should get out there and participate in the campaigns and debates. No one should try to obstruct the fair process.
Speaking of that, the thing people should be more concerned about is the primary process. We saw in 2008 that most GOP voters never had their real choices considered. If that doesn’t change, we are always going to get the liberal choice as a candidate.
Who needs low life, scumbag, democrats for enemies when we have the GOP willing to do their work for free?
Palin will do it again to the Rove types, he ain't even in the same league with Palin. Palin has the people.
One of my buddies who was at Thurs evening show for Miller in Anch told me that Old Randy Ruederich was standing in the crowd supporting Miller, imagine that????? Maybe there's hope for some in that good old boy repub network up here.
Not a smart move by the “establishment.” The conservative base will not stand for this and if the base didn’t support Palin now then after these attacks happen she will find herself with new supporters and even become a stronger candidate for 2012.
It seems kind of like an old story - our greatest disappointment unleashes the very force that could save the party, counter to everything he's trying to do.
I hope he gets to see her election to POTUS in 2012. Justice would be served...
The way I look at it is Sarah Palin is kicking the crap out of the dems so if the Rinos want a little of the action then get in line!!
With reason. Palin eviscerated the Republican "old boys" corruption network in Alaska. A big part of the Alaskan campaigns against all things Palin centers on those same "Republicans" looking for revenge for her having pulled them off the teat.
